Description
IN LOVING MEMORY
It is with a heavy heart that we share the loss of our beloved Snowmass Andean Diamond and her 5/16/25 cria, a 21-pound female, who both passed during a tragic and complicated birth.
Ande was one of our very best—selected for a highly anticipated outside pairing with the champion Appaloosa herdsire, Cygnus. This match held great promise, and we were deeply excited about the potential of this next generation. Despite the swift involvement of our experienced veterinarian, the birthing complications could not be resolved with a positive outcome for mom and baby.
Ande was just beginning what we believed would be a remarkable breeding career. She leaves behind only one offspring—Dark as Knight, a lovely champion black male now owned by Clover Leaf Farm.
More than her genetics, Ande was known for her strong spirit and stand-out personality within the herd. Her loss has left a deep ache here at Rare Gem Alpacas, and her absence is felt every day.

Snowmass Andean Diamond is a lovely Divine Love granddaughter. She is new addition to the Rare Gem herd purchased from the Snowmass 2021 Bred Maiden Sale. Andean Diamond is bred for color to Snowmass Divine Kingship for a 2022 cria.
On 6/12/22, Ande delivered a lovely 16 lbs black male sired by Snowmass Divine Kingship. Ande's maiden delivery was textbook perfect and she is an attentive mother with tons of milk. Her cria is straight and solid. His fleece is curly and thick from the get-go! Thank you Lynn Edens for selecting this pairing... and the result.. in black!! We couldn't be more pleased.
